Welcome to the Geological Society of New Hampshire
GSNH WINTER DINNER MEETING - VIRTUAL
Thursday, January 22 6:30 PM
Speaker: William Stefanov, Senior Earth System Scientist within NASA's Astromaterials Research
and Exploration Science (ARES) Division.
Talk Summary: The Disaster Response Coordination System, or DRCS, is a core component of the
NASA Earth Science Division Disasters Program. Launched by NASA on June 13, 2024 the mission
of the DRCS is to support disaster pre-planning, event response, and post-event recovery efforts of
the federal, state, and local government emergency management community. The program uses
NASA remotely sensed data from orbital and airborne sensors, including the International Space Station.
Since its inception, the DRCS has supported numerous data and data product requests for
events in the continental USA and other countries. This talk will provide an overview of the DRCS,
with examples of data and data products developed in aid of response to a variety of recent events
including wildfires, flooding, and tropical storms.
